Awards Academy Award for Best Actress, Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire
Kate Elizabeth Winslet, CBE (born 5 October 1975), is an English actress and singer. She is the recipient of an Academy Award, an Emmy Award, three Golden Globe Awards and a Grammy Award. She is the youngest person to acquire six Academy Award nominations, and is one of the few actresses to win three of the four major American entertainment awards (EGOT). In addition, she has won awards from the Screen Actors Guild, British Academy of Film and Television Arts, and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association among others, and an Honorary César Award in 2012.
Brought up in Berkshire, Winslet studied drama from childhood, and began her career in British television in 1991. She made her film debut in Heavenly Creatures (1994), for which she received praise. She garnered recognition for her supporting role in Sense and Sensibility (1995) before achieving global stardom with the epic romance Titanic (1997), which was the highest-grossing film of all time at that point. Winslet's performances in Iris (2001), Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), Finding Neverland (2004), Little Children (2006), and Revolutionary Road (2008) continued to draw praise from film critics; the last of these prompted the critic David Edelstein to describe her as "the best English-speaking film actress of her generation".
She won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in The Reader (2008) and the Emmy Award for Best Actress in a Miniseries for playing the title role in Mildred Pierce (2011). Winslet's greatest commercial successes since Titanic include the romantic comedy The Holiday (2006), the animated film Flushed Away (2006), and the first two films of the Divergent series.
In addition to acting, Winslet has narrated documentaries and children's books. She was awarded the Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album for Children in 2000 for narrating Listen To the Storyteller. She has also provided her vocals to soundtracks of her films, including the single "What If" from Christmas Carol: The Movie (2001). Divorced from film directors Jim Threapleton and Sam Mendes, Winslet is married to businessman Ned Rocknroll.
Relationships and children
While on the set of the 1991 TV series Dark Season, Winslet met actor and writer Stephen Tredre, with whom she had a four-and-a-half-year relationship. Winslet and Tredre remained close after their separation in 1995. He died of bone cancer during the opening week of Titanic, causing her to miss the film's Los Angeles premiere to attend his funeral in London.
On 22 November 1998, Winslet married film director Jim Threapleton, whom she met while on the set of Hideous Kinky in 1997. They have a daughter, Mia Honey Threapleton, who was born on 12 October 2000 in London. Winslet and Threapleton divorced on 13 December 2001.
Following her separation from Threapleton, Winslet began a relationship with director Sam Mendes in 2001, and she married him on 24 May 2003 on the island of Anguilla. Their son, Joe Alfie Winslet Mendes, was born on 22 December 2003 in New York City. Winslet and Mendes announced their separation in March 2010, and divorced in 2011.
In August 2011, a fire broke out at a residence in which Winslet, her children, and her then-boyfriend, model Louis Dowler, were staying on Necker Island, the private resort island of Virgin Group founder Richard Branson. The fire caused significant damage to the home, but no injuries.
During the same August 2011 holiday on Necker Island, Winslet met fellow guest Ned Rocknroll, and they soon began dating. Rocknroll was born Ned Abel Smith, but later legally changed his name. He is a nephew of Richard Branson and works for Virgin Galactic, the space-travel division of his uncle's business. Rocknroll was previously married to Eliza Pearson, daughter of Viscount Cowdray. Winslet and Rocknroll became engaged in the summer of 2012. It was announced in September 2012 that the couple had relocated from New York to live in the UK permanently, moving into a heritage home in South Downs National Park in West Sussex. Winslet and Rocknroll married in a private ceremony in New York in December 2012. The couple's son, Bear Blaze Winslet, was born in the County of Sussex, England, on 7 December 2013.
Philanthropic work, experiences and interests
Winslet's weight fluctuations over the years have been well documented by the media. She has been outspoken about her refusal to allow Hollywood to dictate her weight. In February 2003, the British edition of GQ magazine published photographs of Winslet that had been digitally altered to make her look dramatically thinner. Winslet issued a statement that the alterations were made without her consent, saying, "I just didn't want people to think I was a hypocrite and that I'd suddenly lost 30 lbs or whatever". GQ subsequently issued an apology. In 2007, she won a libel suit against Grazia magazine after it claimed that she had visited a diet doctor. She won another libel suit in 2009 against the British tabloid The Daily Mail after it printed that she had lied about her exercise regimen. Winslet stated that she had requested an apology to demonstrate her commitment to the views that she has always expressed regarding women's body issues, namely that women should accept their appearance with pride.
In 2010, Winslet narrated a video for PETA, encouraging chefs to remove foie gras from their menus and asking consumers to boycott restaurants that serve it. Winslet is a vegetarian.
Winslet narrated the documentary A Mother's Courage: Talking Back to Autism, which focused on Keli Thorsteinsson, who has autism, and his mother, Margret Ericsdottir. The documentary was generally released on 24 September 2010, after airing on HBO in April of the same year. Her involvement in the documentary led to her founding the non-profit organisation, the Golden Hat Foundation, whose mission is to eliminate barriers for people living with autism. She also wrote a book titled "The Golden Hat: Talking Back to Autism", which contains personal statements and self-portraits from number of celebrities including Leonardo DiCaprio, Marion Cotillard and Michael Caine. In 2011, Winslet received the Yo Dona award for Best Humanitarian Work for her work with the Golden Hat.
Winslet is the face of cosmetic and perfume house Lancôme and in 2010, she joined Longines as their "Ambassador of Elegance". She has appeared in number of advertising campaigns of both brands. In 2011, Lancôme partner up with Winslet's Golden Hat Foundation, to raise funds for the organization to help people with autism.
Winslet supports ageing naturally and has always spoken openly against Plastic Surgery and botox. In 2015, Winslet appeared in Running Wild with Bear Grylls and talked about being bullied at school by her classmates, saying that "I was chubby, always had big feet, the wrong shoes, bad hair". The same year, she narrated anti-bullying animated short film Daisy Chain, about a victim of cyber-bullying.

Roles Joanna Hoffman
The film is divided into three acts set in the lead-up to key product launches hosted by Apple co-founder Steve Jobs (Fassbender). The first depicts Jobs and marketing executive Joanna Hoffman (Winslet) dealing with problems before the Apple Macintosh launch in 1984. The computer's voice demo will not say "hello", and Jobs demands engineer Andy Hertzfeld (Stuhlbarg) fixes it, threatening to publicly humiliate him in the presentation. Hertzfeld finally suggests faking the demo using the prototype 512k computer. Meanwhile, Jobs rants about a Time magazine article that exposed his paternity dispute with ex-girlfriend Chrisann Brennan (Waterson): Jobs denies he is the father of Brennan's five-year-old daughter, Lisa. Brennan arrives with Lisa to confront Jobs; she is bitter over his denials and his refusal to support her despite his wealth. Jobs bonds with Lisa over her MacPaint art and agrees to provide more money and a house, though he still denies his fatherhood. Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak (Rogen) wishes Jobs well and asks him to acknowledge the Apple II team in his remarks, but Jobs refuses. Flashbacks show the two creating the Apple II, revealing that Wozniak's ideas made the product successful. Jobs then discusses company politics with CEO John Sculley (Daniels); they talk about Jobs' life as an adopted child, and Jobs admits that his need for control stems from his feelings of powerlessness in being given up.

In 2014 the then Chancellor George Osborne took welcome steps to reduce the amount of APD paid by UK families by exempting children under the age of 16 from the tax entirely. In doing so, the Government provided a welcome relief for hard-pressed families across the entirety of the UK.
Still there is more to be done.
Since it was imposed a little over 20 years ago, Air Passenger Duty has increased relentlessly. What began as a simple per passenger tax of £5 for short haul flights and £10 for longer haul flights has become £13 and £71 respectively. On long haul flights this represents a 610% increase in tax per passenger.
Two reasons. The first is about fairness. Why should UK families pay so much more in tax than their European counterparts to take a well-earned holiday? The UK's air travel tax is amongst the highest in the world – five times the global average and double that of Germany which is the next highest in Europe. Two of our immediate neighbours – Ireland and the Netherlands – have abolished their tax altogether. Furthermore, the power to control APD is in the process of being devolved to the Scottish Government, who have made a commitment to cut APD by 50% from April 2018. The result of this will be that families in Stirling will pay less tax to fly than families in Southampton, turning APD into a postcode lottery. This is not fair. What is needed is an even and consistent tax across the whole country.
The second is international competitiveness. In a globalised world this is crucial, and it has been even further underlined by the UK's decision to leave the EU. Whatever opportunities and challenges Brexit poses, maintaining our position as a leading, outward looking, international trading nation is vital, and at its current levels, APD is a barrier to trade. Research by PwC has shown that scrapping APD altogether could create 60,000 jobs and boost our economy to the tune of £16bn. As things stand APD is costing economic growth and jobs that the country needs.
It is for this reason that the air travel and tourism industries have come together to call for action to reduce or abolish this tax across the whole of the country. Only then will all UK families get a fair deal and the economy will better achieve its full potential.

Season 2 of the Bachelor NZ didn't quite go as well as producers expected. If you remember the car-crash of a season, you'll know that Jordan Mauger essentially decided he couldn't commit to a relationship, and called it off with Fleur 48 hours after she was revealed as the winner.
What?! A guy who went on a show to date multiple women couldn't commit? Shock Horror!
Earlier this week, Jordan Mauger A.K.A the Bachelor told The Spinoff that he still hadn't made the decision between Fleur and Nazanin Khanjani on the day of the final rose ceremony. He recalled "The first helicopter was waiting and [the producers] said 'who are they putting in it? So I flipped a coin."
Funnily enough, Fleur also had something to say about the matter, taking a cheeky dig at Jordan in her latest Instagram post.

ArcelorMittal Cuts Losses, Sees Improving Steel Cycle
The net loss of the third quarter was cut by two thirds from the equivalent figure last year to $193 million from $652 million.
Agence France-Presse | Nov 07, 2013
PARIS -- ArcelorMittal (IW 1000/43) has pulled out of the bottom of the slump in the global steel market, the group reported on Thursday, saying it had cut losses in the third quarter and holding targets for operations and debt.
Chief executive Lakshmi Mittal said: "We believe that the bottom of the cycle is behind us."
He said that the group expected earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization in the second half of the year, which was usually weaker than the first half, to be "at least equal to the first."
He said: "Although operating conditions remain challenging, as economic indicators are improving we are cautiously optimistic about the prospects for 2014."
The steel industry is considered to be a barometer of general economic conditions, and the tone of the statement was markedly more positive than in August when the group reported a net loss of $780 million for the second quarter and lowered its targets for the year.
The latest outcome was better than analysts had expected. Sales were almost steady at $19.6 billion, and the EBITA figure rose by 15.6% to $1.7 billion whereas analysts polled by Bloomberg news service had expected $1.5 billion.
The group said it stood by its target to reduce debt to $17.0 billion at the end of the year despite an increase, as it had expected, in the third quarter.
The debt rose from $16.2 billion to $17.8 billion owing to working capital requirements linked to the payment of dividends.

Today I'd like to share a note on how to be confident that the new cron job is configured properly and is added to crontab.
I usually use whenever to configure cron jobs. Assuming that the deployment is set up properly, we will only need to check that the cron job is added to whenever's schedule.rb file.
We've just wrote our task with test.
Here we capture output of a part of crontab file generated by whenever, search for a line with our task and check that it configured properly. This test will fail if you don't add a task to whenever config.

Local Engagement
Based on intensive research and teaching in seven European countries, we aim to create the broadest possible educational work on Jewish cemeteries in Europe. The focus countries are Georgia, Hungary, Lithuania, Moldova, Poland, Slovakia and Ukraine.
The stated goal of this project by ESJF, Centropa and FJH is to create awareness of both the historical and contemporary significance of Jewish cemeteries through educational outreach, teacher trainings, competitions as well as research and publication.
The action follows up on a two pilot projects from 2018 and 2019 and uses the experience gained from them.
It consists of a series of activities such as seminars, webinars, youth and art university competitions.
By choosing specific model schools in each of the seven participating member countries, we create specific learning sites to more focused research and teaching activities on Jewish cemeteries in Europe.
The teaching and learning activities will take place both in absentia as well as on-site at cemeteries in order to make the content as directly experiential as possible.
The importance of tourism is also directly addressed through the inclusion of special development seminars for tour guides and a conference for representatives of the tourism sector.
We from ESJF, Centropa and FJH are looking forward to a very instructive and above all exciting time and would be happy to share it with as many interested people as possible.
European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative
The European Jewish Cemeteries Iniative provides practical solutions on how to physically protect the Jewish cemeteries of Europe. The initiative's preservation work aims to construct walls with locking gates around vulnerable cemeteries and look after the cemeteries' general upkeep. By doing this, the ESJF Project hopes to preserve Jewish memory, especially in so-called 'priority areas such as the former Soviet-bloc and South-Eastern Europe.

Farewell to sawmills and frogs
"Don't use my name," she warned. "Okay, I won't, scout's honour," I assured my Langford Lake friend and neighbour. I was tapping into her view of past years.
Aug. 9, 2011 5:00 a.m.
Let's call her Mary. Under cover of nameless status, she isn't afraid to put a pre-inflation date on herself by remembering five-cent chocolate bars and five-cent restaurant coffee.
"The night the Highway Sawmill burned down," Mary said, "my husband came home so dirty and smoky fighting the fire, that he just dropped his clothes on the raft and jumped in the lake before he had a bath."
That was in the 1950s. "There was another sawmill on Dunford Road, in the 1940s, and that burned down too," she said.
I had the sense that her memory worked somewhat as mine did, a stream of pictures with sound track, driven by strong feelings and quirky surprises.
Like my inner videotape of a man shaking loose a shower of soot from his hair and dropping it on the desk in front of the city editor of the old Daily Colonist.
That was his (eventually successful) complaint against the particle-laden smoke from the mills that surrounded downtown Victoria and sprawled out to distant Langford, in the days when Ross carriers used to trundle through the streets of Victoria with underslung loads of lumber.
Now the sawmills themselves have melted away with the smoke, which has been replaced by the massed fumes of car tailpipes.
"We came to Langford in 1946," Mary said. "My husband was in the air force until August of 1946, and we came out in September. We lived on Dunford Road at first, where the recycling place is now. Before that, we lived in Fairfield for a few months, and our friends there used to ask why we wanted to live way out in the sticks."
The little Women's Institute hall on Dunford, demolished in the 1980s to make room for development, was commemorated indirectly by the name of the cluster of dwellings — Adelaide Court, after Adelaide Hoodless, who was the founder of the Women's Institute in Canada.
Mary remembered the Staverman family on Leigh Road. They lived in one of a small scattering of houses on Leigh and the Island Highway, now Goldstream Avenue.
They were generous enough to allow a big piece of their waterfront to be used as a public beach. Many Langford people learned to swim there.
"And then there was the Powers property. The present public beach was part of it. The Powers sisters had their big house and five acres of woods on Langford Lake. Some of the neighbours tried to have the property developed as a park, but that didn't work."
In the conflict between today's profits and tomorrow's hopes for the grandchild generation, tomorrow came out the loser, as it usually does.
"Where Western Foods now is, and the other stores, that was the Hincks farm" Mary said. "Ken and Bunty Hincks had a dairy farm there, but I never saw any cows. They must have been further back out of sight. Ken's brother Claude was killed in the war. Claude Road is named after him. Ken and Bunty grew vegetables for some years."
Looking at the web of leaves and branches that screened Mary away from the streets and buildings on the former peaty wetland that used to be Hull's Field, I asked her: "When was the last time you heard the frogs singing in the springtime?"
"I heard them a little last year, but I didn't hear them at all this year," she said.
Developers hired consultants who testified that by one of the many definitions of a wetland, Hull's Field was not a wetland. But the frogs knew better.

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE RALPH NADER TO SPEAK IN NEWARK
WHO: Ralph Nader
WHAT: Press Conference and Rally
WHEN: Monday, November 3 at 5:00pm and 5:30pm, respectively
WHERE: Press Conference: Room 124 of the Clayton Hall Conference Center, 100 Pencader Way
Rally: Clayton Hall Conference Center, 100 Pencader Way, University of Delaware, Newark, DE
On Monday, November 3 at 5:00pm, consumer advocate and presidential candidate Ralph Nader will hold a press conference and then a rally in the Clayton Hall Conference Center at the University of Delaware. He will speak about the Wall St. bailout, single-payer health care, the Iraq War, the environment, and the state of the Presidential debates from which he was excluded.
He will also speak about a host of local issues and show the people of Delaware how those local concerns fit into his national campaign.
Ralph Nader is the only Presidential candidate who recommends jail time, not bail time for Wall Street fat cats (and the only one who has been pointing out the risks of deregulation for the last 20 years). He is the number three contender for the Presidency, America's number one consumer advocate, and he has real solutions to our economic woes.
About Ralph Nader
Attorney, author, and consumer advocate Ralph Nader has been named by Time Magazine one of the "100 Most Influential Americans in the 20th Century." For more than four decades he has exposed problems and organized millions of citizens into more than 100 public interest groups advocating solutions. He led the movement to establish the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Consumer Product Safety Commission, and was instrumental in enacting the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Motor Vehicle Safety Act, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and countless other pieces of important consumer legislation. Because of Ralph Nader we drive safer cars, eat healthier food, breathe better air, drink cleaner water, and work in safer environments. Nader graduated from Princeton University and received an LL.B from Harvard Law School.
About Matt Gonzalez
Matt Gonzalez was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 2000 representing San Francisco's fifth council district. From 2003 to 2005, he served as Board of Supervisors President. A former public defender, Gonzalez is managing partner of Gonzalez & Leigh, a 7-attorney practice in San Francisco that represents individuals and organizations in mediation, arbitration, and administrative proceedings before state and federal regulatory bodies. Gonzalez graduated from Columbia University and received a JD from Stanford Law School.
About the Nader/Gonzalez Campaign
The Nader/Gonzalez independent presidential candidacy will be on the ballot in 45 states, is polling at 5-6 percent nationally, and a new Time/CNN poll shows Ralph Nader polling 8 percent in New Mexico, 7 percent in Colorado, 7 percent in Pennsylvania, and 6 percent in Nevada — all key battleground states.

Эбсторфская карта — самая большая по размерам карта XIII века из сохранившихся до XX века средневековых карт мира. Погибла во время бомбардировки Ганновера в 1943 году во время операции «Армагеддон» при налёте союзнической авиации. Остались только две копии, снятые с карты в конце XIX века.

Размер карты — 3580×3560 мм, она содержала более 1600 надписей и сотни миниатюр, обозначавших не только географические объекты, но и особенности природы, а также события библейской истории и античной мифологии.

Создание этой карты XIII века обычно связывается с монастырём бенедиктинок близ города Люнебург в Нижней Саксонии, где она была изготовлена и где её обнаружили около 1830 года.

Основой протографа этой карты является «Хроника» (, 1131—1135 гг. или «Описание карты мира») Гуго Сен-Викторского. Исследователь средневековой картографии Готье-Дальше полагает, что данная карта может считаться редуцированной копией Сен-Викторской карты, которая не дошла до наших дней.

Описание
Карта представляла собой эсхатологическую модель мира, своего рода икону, на вневременном поле которой демонстрировалось Начало и Конец Мира. Земля представлена в виде тела Христова (глава на Востоке, руки в молитвенном жесте повёрнуты ладонями к зрителю — на Севере и Юге, ноги Христа — на Западе) в сопровождении цитат из Псалма 117. 16: «Десница Господа творит силу; Землю рукою объемлет»; внизу карты у ног Христа присутствует фраза: «До конца твёрд пребываю; в милости все образую».

На Востоке, по сторонам головы Христа расположены буквы «Альфа» и «Омега» с комментарием: «Аз есмь Первый и Последний» (Апокалипсис: 1. 17). В центре карты — город Иерусалим и сцена Воскресения (Анастасиса) с сопроводительной легендой:

На полях карты расположена надпись о Рае земном:

Скифия, как свидетельствует легенда карты, «простирается от самого крайнего востока до Океана, а на Юге до Кавказских гор».

На реке Эдил помещен подписанный город Самарха (Самара): миниатюра города, опоясанного крепостной стеной, из-за которой виднеется дворец правителя в окружении построек меньшего размера. Севернее происходит сражение аримаспа с грифоном. Изображение города сопровождает следующая легенда:

Самарха — это город, который расположен в Хазарии, области находящейся в Скифии; город этот по своим размерам превосходит Вавилон, ибо имеет в своей окружности 100 миль; находится же он под совместным управлением [двух] царей: один из них является язычником, а другой-христианин

Из легенды карты об аримаспах и грифонах:

В этих местах обитают антропофаги, люди быстрые, ибо их ноги подобно лошадиным. Питаются они плотью и кровью человеческой. // Скифия простирается от крайних пределов Востока до океана, а на Юге она достигает Кавказского хребта. С западной стороны под Скифией находится Гиркания, в которой проживают 44 народа. В ней (Скифии) имеются крупные реки: Оскор, Фасис, Аракс. В Скифии находят драгоценные камни, а также золото и жемчуг. Но добыть их невозможно из-за большого количества Грифов, которые имеют огромный рост, четыре лапы и покрыты они перьями; и как считают, что быстрее их (в мире) зверя нет. Родятся они к Северу от Гиперборейских гор, на полюсе. Тело их по образу и подобию львиное, а морда и когти, как у орла. Они враждебно относятся к лошадям. А также рвут на части людей, и могут своими смертоубийственными когтями разделать (на части) пару быков и двух козлов.

Оригинал карты хранился в Нижнесаксонском Государственном архиве Ганновера, сгорел в 1943 году. Копия карты хранится в монастыре Эбсторф, по названию которого названа и карта.

HomeTop Down or Bottom Up for Expression Evaluation ?
Continue reading the extended entry to see the results.
It defined a simple expression grammar which includes addition, subtraction, multiplication, negation, division, variables, function calls and sub expressions. The tokens accepted are numbers (integers or simple floating point numbers), symbols and all the punctuation and operands needed.
The grammar uses a simple support class (called Vars) which is used to store a global symbol table and the result of the evaluation.
As you might have noted there is a really big difference about how the expression will be evaluated here and how do I evaluate it in my original expression parser: the expression is executed as soon as a rule is matched, and it is not compiled into an intermediate abstract syntax tree.
This is really a good thing: as we can see, the most of the time is taken by the parser and the scanner, and if we remove their execution from the loop and just evaluate the generated AST, we get a great speed improvment. As far as I know this is quite good if you have a set of expressions that does not vary and do you want to execute them many times.
And this is why quite all the languages precompile their source code into bytecode before execution.
Unfortunately it is time to go now, but I've really a lot of stuff to show you next week (the parser generator, a way to – try to – write an expression evaluator that evaluate expressions at near-native speed …) so stay tuned as usual!


Can Prayer Be A Distraction?
Last edited on: August 24, 2017.
Sometimes, what's obvious is not what's important.
The puppy's barking. Matt jumps up to make it in time, to start this day as every other for the last month: a quick trip outside.
Ten minutes and everyone's settled back in. But like so many other nights, I don't fall right to sleep.
So I sink back into my early morning time of prayer.
I'm thankful for these quiet hours to agree with heaven. Immediately my heart floods with thoughts of friends and family in the midst of difficulties and a world turned upside down with death and confusion. Even still, so much to thank my Father for. So many ways I see His mercy and love, His power and wisdom poured out.
I barely start when, like a gentle touch on the shoulder, the Holy Spirit stops me.
Soak in this moment," He whispers.
As I lay still, little details each take their turn at center stage in the dark room.
Rain gently pelting the roof and bouncing off windows.
Wind chimes singing in harmony.
Matt's measured breathing beside me. In. Out. In. Out.
The soft, cool pillowcase under my neck.
The weight of the comforter on my feet.
The feel and sound of my own breath leaving my chest.
Remember that old saying: "Don't lose sight of the forest for the trees"? It's a reminder to not get so entangled with details and forget the big picture.
But what if we sometimes get so overwhelmed with the big picture we forget to enjoy the details?
Details set in place by the Master Creator. Details pointing out where we stand and what's important. Details reminding us that we're alive. Details declaring His glory.
This wasn't His first invitation to lean back into the moment. They've come over and over in recent weeks. Invitations to pause, to smile, to enjoy what might pass in the next breath.
Flavors that linger, sweet and spicy.
Hugs that go deeper than skin.
Dew in the morning and shadows making their way across afternoon hillsides.
There are two sides to every coin. Two points to every paradox.
Sometimes He just wants to hear the beat of your heart – and you to hear His.
Sometimes He waits until you let all else fade so you can feel His hand squeeze yours.
Sometimes your silent enjoyment of simple details gives Him greatest honor.
There are plenty of prayers to pray. Countless horizons to speak truth to. But take a moment. Take a few. And lean into the details. Lean into the sounds and rhythms and smells. Hold them close, even for a moment, and thank the One Who gives you the ability to smile. He loves that.

Diving Back In – Does God Guide Your Steps?


The Supreme Court handed down a landmark religious liberty ruling on Wednesday.
Editor's note: Douglas Laycock, Professor of Constitutional Law at the University of Virginia, represented Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School in the case the Supreme Court decided Wednesday.
(CNN) - Wednesday's Supreme Court decision holding that ministers cannot sue their churches for employment discrimination was a huge win for religious liberty. It was unanimous, it was sweeping and it was unqualified.
This decision was about separation of church and state in its most fundamental sense. Churches do not run the government, select government leaders, or set criteria for choosing government leaders.
And government does not run the churches, select religious leaders, or set criteria for choosing religious leaders. The Court unanimously reaffirmed that principle on Wednesday.
Cheryl Perich was a commissioned minister at the Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School in Redford, Michigan. She taught religion every day; she led prayers and devotional exercises every day; she planned and led chapel services.
When she got sick, Hosanna-Tabor carried her at full pay and full benefits for seven months. This was a terrible hardship in a church and school with seven teachers, 84 students and deep financial problems.
In its effort to preserve a job for Perich to return to, the school put three grades in one classroom for a whole semester. It went far beyond the requirements of law in its efforts to accommodate her disability.
Finally, at the semester break, the school reluctantly decided it had to replace her. When she provoked a confrontation at the school and threatened to sue the church, the congregation rescinded her call, for insubordination and for violating one of the church doctrines she was supposed to teach and model.
There was a well developed church grievance process that she could have used, run by the denomination, with hearing officers independent of the local church.
And there was longstanding church teaching that disputes over ministry must be resolved in that process, by Lutherans who understood the church and its faith, and not by the civil courts.
The details of this employment dispute were not the issue in the Supreme Court. Rather, the issue was who decides.
If ministers were allowed to sue for employment discrimination, judges and juries would wind up deciding who is a good minister, worthy of retention, and who is not. These cases end with a jury deciding whether the employer had a good enough reason to justify its decision.
In Perich's case, a jury would have decided whether she was fit for Lutheran ministry even after she defied Lutheran teaching.
The Supreme Court unanimously said that ministers cannot sue their churches for employment discrimination. It defined "ministers" broadly, to include priests and rabbis and imams and persons with mixed religious and secular duties.
And it said that the church need not explain its decision, because the reasons are none of the court's business. The selection and retention of ministers is entirely the responsibility of the churches.
Some churches will exercise this authority wisely; some may not. Denominations and associations of churches would do well to establish grievance procedures that really work, like the one that Cheryl Perich failed to use.
But whatever the ratio of wise decisions to bad decisions, it is far better for the American tradition of religious liberty for the selection of ministers to be entrusted to the churches those ministers serve.
Wednesday's decision also protects the right of churches to define the qualifications of their clergy. Some churches have requirements that are forbidden to secular employers.
Catholics, Orthodox Jews, and some Protestant denominations do not ordain women. Catholics require celibacy, violating laws on marital status discrimination in many states. Some denominations refuse to ordain sexually active gays and lesbians, violating sexual orientation laws in many states.
There are no exceptions written into the discrimination laws to protect these longstanding religious practices. They have been protected only by the constitutional rule that the Court reaffirmed Wednesday – that ministers cannot sue their churches for employment discrimination.
Of course, some members of these faiths would like to change these rules. But who is eligible for ordination is a theological issue to be fought out within each religious tradition, not an issue to be decided by courts or legislatures.
It would be absurd for courts to order an end to Catholic celibacy rules, or to entertain a class action alleging that women are underrepresented in the clergy of some denomination that ordains women but has not ordained as many women as men. The legal rule that prevents such lawsuits is the ministerial exception that the Supreme Court reaffirmed Wednesday.
Both the rules for selecting ministers, and the evaluation of ministers in individual cases, are decisions for the nation's religious organizations – not the government. That is the welcome meaning of Wednesday's Supreme Court decision.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Douglas Laycock.
Planned Parenthood was caught on tape aiding a woman who was afraid she was carrying a girl baby. She didn't want a girl. So, Planned Parenthood in Texas helped her arrange an abortion to murder this baby girl.
Well, it was a set-up. But, it's on tape. And, Congress is, right now, trying to pass a ban on Gender-Specific Abortions. Now, that wouldn't stop someone from lying about why they want an abortion. But, it's something. It's a moral stand against murder...and, murder committed because someone doesn't want a boy or a girl.
And, we know that most of these Gender-Specific Abortions are done on GIRL babies. Talk about the REAL War on Women! There it is!
But, yesterday, the White House danced around the issue. Obama hadn't "evolved" yet.
Today, I guess he's finished evolving on this: he is AGAINST the ban on Gender-Specific Abortions. In plain language, he's FOR murder against a baby based on gender.
Remember, this is also the man who supported infanticide (the murder of a living baby who was lucky enough or tough enough to survive a botched abortion) when he was a senator in Illinois.
You know, I think I know now exactly where he was born: CHINA! They do that there, you know. Force abortions of girl babies. They also force abortions if you have more than one child, too. Guess he'll be in favor of THAT next!
And, please keep in mind: if the Court does not over-turn ObamaCare; and, if the suit brought by 43 dioceses against Obama fails, we will all end up paying for abortions...through taxes, through church donations and through insurance payments. Murder. Committed by other people with OUR money. And, in some case, just because they want a boy or a girl and they're carrying a "thing" they just DON'T WANT!
Great Great Great speech Cheryl! Everything you said is absolutely true and you hit the nail on the head. When these people support abortion they are supporting murder and we are going to have to pay for it.
Man, religious people and non-religious people blasting each other with hateful generalizations and rude comments – I thought we would have matured by this time in history. Oh well, maybe another 500 years – if we even last that long as a race.

At the end of this European Concert, flowers rain down on the conductor and orchestra. And with rapturous applause tinged with a little sadness, the audience in Palermo's Teatro Massimo say farewell to Claudio Abbado as chief conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker. With the 2002 European Concert, Abbado's final tour at the head of the orchestra began. It took him all through his Italian homeland, culminating in Vienna in Austria where Abbado – with his successor Sir Simon Rattle in the audience – gave his last performance as chief conductor with the Berliner Philharmoniker on 13 May 2002.
The central work in the first half of the concert is the Violin Concerto by Johannes Brahms – a work which took a while to establish itself after its composition in 1879 as it did not seem spectacular enough for the virtuoso violinists. Pablo de Sarasate for example found it an impertinence to expect him "to stand on the rostrum, violin in hand, and listen to the oboe playing the only tune in the Adagio". Gil Shaham, on the other hand, shows just what infinite beauty lies in the subtle, tentative moments of the work.
Antonín Dvořák brings the official part of the European Concert to a close with his symphony From the New World. This is not, as is often assumed, merely a collection of quotations from Native American music and spirituals. The work receives its distinctive flavour rather by the ingenious combination of American and Bohemian elements of the composer's innate musical idiom. Claudio Abbado and the Berliner Philharmoniker then give as an encore a piece which one could say plays out right at the door of the Teatro Massimo: the overture to Verdi's opera The Sicilian Vespers.


Throwing a bachelorette party is just one more step in the expensive to-do list that comes along with wedding planning, but it's a crucial one - the bride needs to celebrate with her closest girlfriends before the big day! It doesn't have to be some giant, glamorous Vegas getaway that you need to spend every last penny on, but it can still be glamorous - just on a budget!
First thing's first: as always, set a clear budget. Be transparent with the entire bridal party and the bride - what's everyone comfortable spending? This step should always come first, because it really helps you narrow down your options for the celebration! Once your budget is set in stone, organize a Google Docs sheet to keep everything as transparent as possible. Group texts and email chains can get confusing fast, so write out itinerary plans and expenses in a shared document so everyone can stay on top of things!
Now's the big question: what to do? The possibilities for a bachelorette party are endless, because the point of it all is to spend time with your girlfriends; chances are, you'll have the time of your life together no matter what it is you're doing!
A great idea to save some money is to keep the celebration limited to one day or night. An entire weekend may sound like fun at first, but it can get drawn out fast and the costs really add up. Choose quality over quantity!
Instead, head out for a day trip with the bridal party or a one night stay somewhere relatively local. Some of our fave ideas are visiting a local winery for brunch over some rosé, renting a gorgeous suite in a nearby hotel for the night and opting for their spa package, having a slumber party girls' night at home, or doing a bar crawl of all the places you frequented when you all first turned 21 - you could even add in a scavenger hunt for some added excitement! For the adventurous bride, a glamping trip could be the perfect girls' night mixed with a little bit of outdoorsy fun, and for the artsy bride, a Paint n' Sip night could be a relaxing celebration. Plan your event around the bride's personality for a super unique party.
Bachelorette parties wouldn't be complete without the classic tiara and sash, but keep the other personalized gifts to a minimum to save some money in your planning. An adorable monogrammed wine glass or tumbler for each guest with the date would be a small but memorable gift, or save even more with some budget-friendly flash tattoos or hangover kits - you don't have to go all out with expensive personalized t-shirts!


Am 22. und 23. November organisierte das IEP in Zusammenarbeit mit der Trans European Policy Studies Association (TEPSA) und der VolkswagenStiftung eine Expertenkonferenz zum Thema "The EU, Russia and Eastern Europe – Dissenting views on security, stability and partnership?", die in der Vertretung des Saarlandes beim Bund in Berlin stattfand. Die Konferenz, an der internationale Experten aus Politik und Wissenschaft teilnahmen, war zugleich die Abschlussveranstaltung des Study Programme on European Security (SPES).
Forty participants – among them international experts from academia and the policy-making community – gathered at the Representation of the Saarland to the Federation to discuss three different, though interrelated topics: the issue of the 'shared neighbourhood' in the EU-Russia relations, the future of the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) and the security dimension of EU external action in the (South) Eastern neighbourhood. The EU-Russia relations in the light of the 'common neighbourhood' was the first topic under discussion. The review of possibilities for political cooperation between the EU and Russia in the post-Soviet space crystallized diverging positions on possible policy fields, tools and relevant actors (EU institutions, member states, economic or societal actors). The second panel aimed at discussing and evaluating the impact of the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) and the Eastern Partnership (EaP). While both achievements and limits were highlighted, the discussion focused on the (theoretical, practical and psychological) impact of membership conditionality. In the third panel participants discussed institutional developments of the EU's Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). Moreover, the policy was analysed from a regional perspective (i.e. implications for the Balkans) as well as around analytical lenses (i.e. long-term processes that are external to actors' policy decisions). Finally, a dinner debate with Borys Tarasyuk, former Foreign Minister of Ukraine, focussed on the state of affairs of the EU-Ukraine relations, reasons for the failure of the Orange Revolution, and Ukraine's positioning between the EU and Russia.

We were wise to take a wait and see approach to yesterday's trading, as spot gold prices registered their sixth down day in a row on the daily candle chart, with yesterday's candle just touching the 40 day moving average. Once again the move was perceived as 'forced liquidation' as investors sold their gold assets in order to raise cash to deal with the recent steep declines in equities. So far the surge in investment demand proved to be enough to offset the slump in jewellery consumption particular from India , the world's top buyer, but exchange traded funds for gold have now reached a standstill.
From a technical perspective the important issue for today will be whether the support area in the $910 region actually holds, with the signs from yesterday suggesting that it might. Firstly, the lowest price of the day yesterday failed to penetrate this region, and secondly as mentioned earlier, the low of the day failed to move across the 40 day moving average. Clearly the bearish engulfing signal that we saw in the weekly charts is now firmly in place, and as traders we need to see the next few days as possible buying opportunities into the longer term bullish trend, but IF and only WHEN we see a reversal signal, either in the daily or the weekly chart. So today is another wait and see day – if the support level remains unbroken, then this may be the catalyst to a reversal, but if this is broken today, then we may see a move back past the $900 and down towards the $875 region.

New Variant of CCP Virus 'Out of Control,' UK Health Minister Says
Britain's Health Secretary Matt Hancock arrives at Downing Street in London on Dec. 10, 2020. (Simon Dawson/Reuters)
UK Government Expands Southeast England Lockdown to Stem New CCP Virus Strain
By Simon Veazey
More parts of England will join London in the toughest tier of CCP virus restrictions from Boxing Day with the new strain "spreading at a dangerous rate," the UK health secretary announced on Wednesday.
Nearly all of the southeast corner of the country will be in tier four one restrictions minutes after Christmas Day ends, as the counties of Oxfordshire, Suffolk, Norfolk, and Cambridgeshire, as well as the remaining parts of Essex, Surrey, and Hampshire are added to the list.
"Just as we've got a tiered system in place that was able to control this virus, we've discovered a new, more contagious virus variant that is spreading at a dangerous rate," Health Secretary Matt Hancock said. "We know that tier three is not enough to control the new variant."
Speaking at a Downing Street press conference on Dec. 23, Hancock said that cases of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus (novel coronavirus) had risen by 57 percent in the last week. They are rising particularly fast in London.
Today, 691 people died with the virus, he said.

"COVID hospital admissions are 1,909, a day—that's the highest figure since mid-April or 18,943 people in hospital," he said.
Other areas will be moved from tier two to tier three: Bristol, Gloucestershire, Somerset, including the North Somerset council area, Swindon, the Isle of Wight, the New Forest, Northamptonshire, Cheshire, and Warrington.
Hancock said that as part of the genomic surveillance, two cases of another new variant from South Africa have been detected.
"This new variant is highly concerning, because it is yet more transmissible, and it appears to have mutated further," Hancock said.
Travel restrictions are now being placed on South Africa. All people who have been to South Africa in the last fortnight, together with any of their close contacts, must now quarantine by law, Hancock said.
Hancock was asked why the government didn't introduce a full national lockdown, given that the new strain has appeared in many places across the country.
"The variant is highly concentrated, and the stay at home rule in the east, the southeast, and London is aimed at keeping this new variant from spreading across the country," Hancock said.
He said that they wanted to keep the measures proportionate, noting that in other parts of the country where the new variant numbers are low, the current tiers are working.
The government added tier four—essentially a regional return to the full lockdown measures—to the virus control measures in response to the uptick in the virus in London and the southeast, which they attribute to the new strain of the virus.
Under tier four, people have to stay at home except for limited exemptions, and individuals can only meet one person from another household in an outdoor public space.
Retail businesses deemed non-essential, indoor gyms, leisure facilities, and personal care services must close.
Travelling in and out of tier four areas is prohibited, and residents in tier four areas will not be permitted to travel abroad, apart from limited exceptions such as for work purposes.

Josh was extremely helpful in setting the move up! Everything went smoothly, and costs were fully disclosed. No surprises.
This was a difficult move of a single item, a 390lb chest freezer, from the basement up a narrow, twisting stairway to the street. 4 workers accomplished this move in about one hour with little or no damage to the walls. I was very pleased with their work. It was not a cheap move, but I only had to do it once.
They were very good and professional. I rated the value for the money as average as it ended up costing more than we anticipated for a fairly small move. They send 3 people and probably only needed wo.
My original mover did not show up. Had to scramble. HomeAdvisor went the extra mile as did Puget Sound Movers. Even though the online schedule through HomeAdvisor showed no availability, I called. The operator heard that my mover didn't show up and I needed help. He put through the call to Puget Sound Movers and they called me!. The price was fair and the service great. Every convenience that I could need was itemized and delivered. They showed up on time and worked hard to get everything done. I am happy to recommend Puget Sound Movers and will use them again.
On time, fast and friendly movers.
I appreciated the transparency and communication pre-move. Once onsite we realized that there was a quoting miscommunication between PSM and the contractors that arrived onsite but they honored our original commitment without issue. The movers were 98% diligent and careful. Only a couple of nicks that could have been avoided.
Kelton was very responsive and answered all of my questions through emails and calls. Three movers and a large truck showed up on time and were quick and nice. They didn't have enough boxes, which is strange because I did use the inventory app to show what needed to be packed. I had to go to Lowe's to buy more boxes. They asked questions when they needed to know where something was supposed to go. We had to jump their truck because the battery was dead, but other than that, PS Moving did a fine job.

A resident of Long Beach, CA for more than sixty-five years, Sue Sugie Asari was born on Hellman Ranch in Coyote Pass (now Monterey Park, CA). The fourth of five Sansei children and the second daughter of Katsushige and Ishi (Segawa) Baba, she was the granddaughter of immigrants who arrived in Hawaii from Hiroshima prior to 1900.
After early schooling in Coyote Pass, Sue graduated from Heart Mountain High School in Wyoming, where her family was detained during World War II. Work as a nurses' aide in the camp hospital was followed by positions in Pennsylvania under the guardianship of her sister Umeno.
Upon returning to Southern California, Sue gained employment as a specialty seamstress and celebrity housekeeper. She rejoined her family in Long Beach and rode the Red Car to work in Los Angeles. In 1949, Sue married her beloved Torao Fred Asari. Together they raised two daughters and lived a happy life of family and home, friends, travel, and culture.
Always looking forward to her next activity, Sue enjoyed experimenting with plants in her garden, sewing, and creating delicious diverse meals. Learning from cooking shows, PBS and NHK documentaries and viewing Japanese and Korean dramas were all favorites. She admired Martha Stewart, P. Allen Smith, and Venetia in Kyoto, too humble to realize that she lived her life sharing the same talents.
Sue was widowed since the passing of her husband Fred on November 5, 2007, their fifty-eighth wedding anniversary. Missing their "Mama Sue" are daughters Diane Fujie Asari and Christine Shigeko (Jim) Mercer. She is also survived by her treasured sister Umeno Lynn Iwamoto, cherished cousins, nephews, nieces, and friends locally, in Hawaii, and Hiroshima and Kobe, Japan.
A private service was held on February 15, 2019 at Koyasan Buddhist Temple with Rev. Ryuzen Hayashi of Koyasan and Rev. Shumyo Kojima of Zenshuji Soto Mission followed by burial at Green Hills Memorial Park, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA.


So here we are, at the much anticipated crossover event between "The Walking Dead" and "Fear the Walking Dead," and it was a hell of a doozie.
For most of the episode, the original main cast of "Fear" was nowhere to be seen, instead focusing entirely on Morgan's (Lennie James) long journey away from Rick and co. until he met up with a couple other new characters, played by Garret Dillahunt and Maggie Grace. But the episode focused entirely on those three until the very end, when the old cast finally appeared.
And when they showed up, hoo boy, what a re-introduction. Strand (Colman Domingo) and Nick (Frank Dillane) and Alicia (Alycia Debnam-Carey) and Luci (Danay Garcia) ambushed the new people, looking all dirty and gross. They're basically bandits, and it looks like they've been through the ringer.
The key to understanding what's going on there is knowing how season 4 of "Fear the Walking Dead" is structured. It's not a straightforward narrative this time, but instead this season will feature parallel stories. What we saw in the season premiere represents the beginning of one of those stories — next week, you'll see the beginning of the other, which will explore how exactly Madison's crew ended up all haggard and terrifying.
The parallel plots will likely play out through the entire season of "Fear the Walking Dead" — though that's just a guess, since I've only seen the first two episodes. For however long it lasts, though, it seems like a pretty novel concept. And, yes, the mysterious flag that Morgan and his new friends encountered will be very important next week and beyond. But, again, I'll hold my tongue from talking about it any more for the sake of not spoiling you. But, rest assured, we'll talk about this more next week.
